The Pac 10: Senior Day on The Farm

The Pac 10, Senior Day on The Farm

Hard to believe but that day we never wanted is here. Saturday is Senior Day at Stanford, the last home regular season game for Cissy Pierce and the greatest Stanford Women’s Player ever, Candice Wiggins. Yes we’ll see Candice at Cal, and at the Pac 10 and at Maples in the NCAA’s, but we will celebrate Cissy and Candice this Saturday against ASU.



1. Cal (21-3, 12-1) Won their first game in Eugene in 15 years to cap another winning weekend for Cal. Vital had 17 in the win at Oregon State, and Gray-Lawson had 16 against Oregon. Hampton had 23 points and 15 rebounds while Walker had 21 points and 20 rebounds for the week.

Thursday, ASU, Saturday, Arizona, 1PM, TV


2. Stanford (22-3, 11-2) Kept pace with Cal, one game behind, with their sweep in Oregon. Candice with 50 points and 12 rebounds in the two league games. The 2 game totals for Appel, 26 points, 19 rebounds, NINE blocked shots, and for Pederson, 38 points,17 rebounds. And not to be forgotten, Stanford beat Santa Clara on Tuesday with JJ Hones scoring 20 points on 5 of 6 three’s.

Thursday, Arizona, Saturday, ASU, 1PM, TV

2. Arizona State (16-7, 10-2) Played only one game this week and beat Arizona in a very close game in Tempe. January with 16 points and 6 assists, but an uncharacteristic 5 turnovers.

Thursday @ Cal, Saturday @ Stanford 1PM, TV


4. USC (15-9, 8-5) Swept the Washington schools at home. Nadia Parker had a big weekend with 37 points and 17 rebounds. Dunham had 10 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists to go with 6 turnovers against Washington and Jelks made 3 of 4 three’s against Washington. Heather Oliver had 21 points and 8 rebounds against WSU. Neither Hughes nor LaPlante played last weekend and both are doubtful for UCLA.

Sunday @ UCLA


4. UCLA (13-11, 8-5) Beat the Washington schools twice, behind Pac 10 Player of the Week Lindsey Pluimer. Lindsey had 38 points and 13 rebounds for the week, but her honor was surely due to passing famed Stanford Women’s Volleyball Assistant Coach Denise Corlett to move into 10th place on the UCLA all time rebounding list.

Sunday, USC

6. Washington (9-15, 4-8) Lost twice in LA, although played a very tough game against UCLA. Katelan Redmon scored 16 against USC. Sami Whitcomb scored 27 with 5 three’s against UCLA to almost pull off an upset.

Friday, Oregon, Sunday, Oregon State


7. Oregon (10-14, 4-9) Blown out twice at home to Stanford and Cal. The Ducks shot only 20% against Cal. Canepa scored 12 against Stanford, but that 20% shooting left no highlights against Cal.

Friday @ Washington, Sunday @ Washington State

8. Arizona (9-14, 3-9) Lost to ASU in Tempe but it was close and Arizona played the Sun Devils tough. Ashley Whisonant led the Wildcats with 16 points, 6 assists although 6 turnovers.

Thursday @ Stanford, Saturday @ Cal, 1:00, TV

9 Oregon State (10-14, 3-10) Lost twice to the Bay Area schools but played tough both games. Mitchell had 13 against Cal, and Allen had 17 against Stanford.

Friday @ Washington State, Sunday @ Washington

10. WSU (3-20, 0-12) Katie Appleton had 18 points and 8 rebounds against UCLA, then only played 8 minutes against USC as WSU lost 2 in LA.
